Publishing Guide: How to Use the Image Gallery to Place an Image on a Page  
 
Summary: Follow the steps below to place an image on a Blink or TritonLink page after you have added the image to the Gallery.

For instructions on uploading an image, see How to Add an Image to the Image Gallery.
What to do How to do it
1 Log into the Gallery via the Content Manager.
  1. Click the Content Manager link at the bottom of any Blink page.
  2. Log in via Single Sign-On or by entering your username and password.
  3. Click the Gallery link near the top of the left sidebar, under "Content Maintenance."
2 Find the image you want.
  1. Click the Image Chooser link below the Blink Gallery Maintenance window.
  2. Locate your image:
    • Search by using the categories and keywords drop-down menus.
      or
    • Scroll directly to the image using the image name on the All Thumbnails drop-down alphabetical list.
3 Select the image.
  1. Always click on the last (bottom) of the three image sizes displayed. (The top two image sizes are automatically generated by the Gallery for other uses.)
  2. The Image Chooser will close, and you'll see the image's URL in the Image Chooser window at the bottom of the Gallery page.
4 Place the image on your page in Content Manager.
  1. Cut and paste the URL generated by the Image Chooser into the HTML code on your page. Use an image-source tag: <img src=X> and place the image code where the X is.
  2. For additional help with HTML code, see Blink's Publishing Guide pages about basic and advanced HTML.
